36 hours after the appearance of the black hole.

In the image of the black hole above V City, the world on the other side finally turns from long day to night.

Jiuyou and the Son of Heaven's previous judgment on the number of monsters affected by day and night was accurate.

It's fine when it's dark on both sides, as long as the lights in the city are turned off as much as possible, and the impact on the other world is minimal.

The most feared thing is the night opposite, the earth is the situation of daytime, at this time, in the eyes of the giant world opposite, the black hole on the ground is as conspicuous as a searchlight in the dark night, and it can be seen from a long distance.

This is the case in City V.

Even if human hands have been arranged to create dark clouds under the black hole without interruption, they cannot completely block out the natural bright light during the day.

So from this morning, when the opposite world entered the night, the frequency of monsters falling from the black hole in V City began to increase at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Silkworms, moths, fish and insects, flies and animals, and all kinds of light-loving creatures are constantly falling from the black hole.

After these monsters landed, a very small number of them would fight on the spot out of territorial awareness, saving the effort of humans, but more creatures would still instinctively start to flee to the surrounding area because of the sudden fall into an unfamiliar environment.

Directly below the black hole, two teams of masters with a number of more than 1,000 have been arranged, and the lowest level of personnel are above level 18, so it can be said that all the masters who can be recruited from several nearby provinces and cities have been gathered here.

The goal of these two teams is simple, they are dedicated to pinning down and sniping the occasional three-star and above monsters. As for creatures below two stars, they will just let them go, there is no way, there is really too much shortage of masters.

The two-star creatures that were transferred to the surrounding area were handed over to the second line of defense in the rear.

The second line of defense, which is the three surrounding cities bordering V, is a joint encirclement network, which is guarded by lower-level but large numbers of players and troops.

K City is one of the three cities around V City.

At this moment, in the southern suburbs of K City, it has been enveloped in the roar of magic and the roar of monsters.

A large number of humans gathered behind the fortifications of the defensive line, feathered arrows and acid constantly passing by, splashing bright red sparks from time to time, and all kinds of magic swept through the sky, bursting into dazzling flames.

Huge amounts of magical energy converged into a brilliant and colorful tornado nearby, enveloping the giant beast in front of it, blocking the monster's vision.

At the same moment, a large number of arcane magic missiles shot into the sky together, flying along the spiral trajectory, blooming beautiful magical flames around the monster.

The previous day's battles around the world had fully proved that in the face of these giant creatures, the effect of physical firearms could not catch up with magic, because there was no magic in the giant world, and the magic resistance of these monsters was zero, but they had almost 100% 'ailment resistance'.

In other words, the magic that restricts the control type is almost ineffective against the Behemoth, but the damage of the magic can be 100% exerted on them.

Especially after many people climb the tower to obtain the power of the gods, to deal with those low-level creatures with weak god defenses, at least use magic to trigger the power of the gods, break through their hard skin, and each hit can be guaranteed to cause some damage, but firearms and firearms are foreign objects and cannot trigger the power of the gods, and this factor alone makes magic much more practical than physical fire (see chapter 330 for details of the power of the gods trigger rules).

To say that the only thing that can be effective against these alien beasts in human science and technology is probably a few heavy firepower weapons including mushroom bullets, however, it is still a matter of level suppression, these physical weapons, in the face of these monsters whose level is all above level 25, have at least four layers of suppression, which directly leads to their damage reduced to a point where they can't bear to look at directly.

It is said that yesterday when the monsters in the Americas were the most ferocious and dense, the military couldn't resist the pressure, gathered the monsters into an open area, and used a nuclear weapon, hoping to empty these monsters at once, but the result was not satisfactory.

One or two star monsters were killed and injured under the explosion, but most of the monsters above three stars were not even blown up half of their lives, and they were still alive and well, but their own land was seriously damaged, and for a long time in the future, they would have to bear the risk of follow-up nuclear radiation, and the harm brought by them was no less than that of monsters, and it could be said that they injured the enemy by 1,000 and lost 10,000.

"What about the manpower? Why haven't you come yet? Zhang Yang looked at the front line that was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but look at Liu Chen on the side and ask.

As the head of the K-City Diversion Bureau, he was appointed commander-in-chief in charge of the defense line around K-City.

Looking at the battlefield in front of him, which was almost covered in magical smoke, Zhang Yang's expression was solemn.

You must know that against such giant creatures, melee personnel are almost useless, not to mention the question of whether melee means can cause damage, if you don't keep your distance, just these giant creatures can crush a large area just by turning over.

At present, 12,000 mage archers with long-range strike capabilities have been intermittently planted on this defensive line in the southern suburbs.

However, compared to the number of monsters, this is really not enough, especially in the opposite world at night, the speed of the monster increase begins to increase sharply, and the defensive pressure is instantly doubled, causing the entire front to become precarious.

"Still in the scheduling......" Liu Chen smiled bitterly.

In fact, a day ago, the state issued a semi-mandatory conscription order to the people, calling all players with long-range attack capabilities, and trumpeting the benefits of participating in the war, such as killing monsters to gain real experience, and the opportunity to obtain alien beast materials, divine crystals, and so on.

But even so, there are still very few responders, firstly, because this is not the Star Spirit Realm, there is no chance of resurrection, and not many people are willing to risk their lives to fight against alien beasts for the sake of that little drizzle reward;

The second is because of the widespread existence of space backpacks, resulting in most people not having enough sense of crisis, thinking that even if the monster comes, as long as they hide in the backpack, they can keep their small family safe and sound, and in the case of a way out, how many people are willing to take the initiative to come to the front line to fight hard?

It is this trend of thought that has led to the shortage of manpower everywhere now.

"What about Mu You? No news yet? Zhang Yang asked again.

"No, it's been a day and a half, and I haven't been able to contact anyone......" Liu Chen sighed.

"How?" Zhang Yang couldn't help frowning.

He knew that there were indeed many people in the city who were obviously capable of fighting, but because they were afraid of hardship and death, they took the initiative to hide and wait for the disaster to pass.

He can't be harsh on such a person, it's just human nature, but he believes that Mu You will definitely not be the case, which can only show that Mu You is likely to be entangled in something now, and he can't get out, and even more seriously, it may have ......

"I hope I'm thinking too much......" Zhang Yang sighed, shook his head, and shook off these thoughts.

"Lao Zhang!"

In the middle of his thoughts, Liu Chen next to him suddenly exclaimed.

Zhang Yang hurriedly turned his head to look.

At this moment, in the smoke and dust in front of him, three huge figures broke through the smoke and dust together, and the target was directly aimed at their defense line.

"A150 Alien Beast, Iris, Two Stars!"

"A151 Alien Beast, Six-Eyed Lizard, Two Stars!"

"A152 Alien Beast, Silt Pilger, Two Stars!"

Liu Chen quickly read out the information displayed on the screen of the instrument in his hand.

After a day and a half of preparation, now the nine black hole mouths have established a complete real-time monitoring system, the moment any monster falls, it will be captured by the system for the first time, establish a number, and find the corresponding biological text information in the database, including the attributes of the creature, weaknesses, recommended response methods, etc., and feedback to the front-line combatants as soon as possible.

It is also thanks to this complete detection system that the pressure on everyone's defense is greatly reduced.

At this time, the information of the three new creatures that appeared in the black hole of V City was transmitted to the receiver in Liu Chen's hand in less than ten seconds.

However, the information in it still surprised everyone.

"Nima, two-star, three at once? Why are they all coming at us? The corners of his eyes jumped wildly.

Even if there were two-star people coming over before, they came one by one, so even if there were fewer people, they could hold on.

As a result, now there are three of them running at once, and it seems that they have formed a team, and they are killing them directly, how do they deal with this?

"It should be because there are so many people......" Liu Chen was also sweating on his forehead.

Because of its proximity to the black hole, K City is also one of the high-risk areas, after the global change, the residents of K City began to flee in large numbers, but due to the rush of time, only about half of the evacuation is currently out, and there are still a large number of ordinary people in the city, and for these cannibalistic monsters, the denser the flow of people, the more abundant the food.

"Quick, the line retreats!" Seeing the strange beast approaching quickly, Zhang Yang hurriedly shouted.

"Do you really want to withdraw?" Liu Chen was a little hesitant, if he retreated, the defense line would be expanded, and more and more people would be needed.

"No way, we will definitely not be able to cope with this situation, if we don't withdraw now, we will only lose manpower in vain, let's retreat first and wait for support......" Zhang Yang immediately decided, took out the walkie-talkie, and prepared to give an order.

But at this moment, no one noticed that on the roof of an abandoned building in front of them, two figures, one large and one small, landed one after another.

The eldest of them is a female forest elf, and the smaller is a little girl wearing a cat-face mask.

After the two landed, the little girl immediately took out a square box, held it in her arms, and opened the lid: "Mengmeng, beat it!" ”

"Roar!"

A huge black phantom instantly poured out of the box, landed on the ground in the black gas entanglement, and then roared angrily, and rushed towards the three monsters at high speed, swinging out a claw, scratching the nearest ooze monster.

With a claw, the body of the ooze monster suddenly swayed left and right like jelly, shaking non-stop.

The ooze monster was dizzy and swollen by this slap, and when he came back to his senses, he was immediately furious, and his whole body opened like a bat's wing, rushing towards the shadow ghost, as if trying to wrap it inside, but unfortunately it was dodged by the shadow ghost's clever back-jump, and waved its claws again and again, and the surface of the ooze monster's body was quickly torn and damaged, although the ooze monster was quickly able to reorganize, but the fishy mud and poisonous gas in its body were still gushing out.

"Shadow, Shadow!"

Zhang Yang watched the pupils of the newly emerged monster shrink sharply, and he almost went into cardiac arrest.

Because K City had the experience of being attacked by Shadow Ghosts once, he, the person in charge of K City, was particularly sensitive to Shadow Ghosts.

Especially the shadow ghost does not come out early or late, but it just appeared at such a critical moment now, which suddenly made Zhang Yang feel like his eyes were dark.

"But like, you're here to help us?" On the contrary, Liu Chen next to him did not have any psychological shadow on the shadow ghost, and immediately sorted out the situation.

Being reminded by Liu Chen, Zhang Yang also reacted, and hurriedly glanced in the direction where the shadow ghost appeared, and soon found the two figures on the top of the tall building at this time, especially the little girl among them, who was waving her fists and jumping and jumping, as if she was cheering for the shadow ghost.

"Could it be that the Shadow Ghost was summoned by that child?" It's a bit unbelievable.

But that's not all.

When Zhang Yang looked up, he suddenly found that a huge flying creature resembling a dragonfly in the sky was diving down at extreme speed, approaching the ground in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, the dragonfly did not attack the two people in the sky after rushing over, but swept past the two of them and rushed straight to the six-eyed lizard below, the mantis knife in his hand flashed, and the lizard fought together.

"A026 Alien Beast, Two Stars, Pyridox?" Liu Chen immediately called up the information of this newly appeared beast, but the information displayed by the result surprised him extremely much.

"026, shouldn't this be yesterday's beast? Why hasn't it been disposed of yet? ”

"Moreover, he also took the initiative to fight with other monsters...... Zhang Yang looked at this scene, and then looked at the forest spirit in the sky, he was already vaguely aware of something, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

Looks like a helper has arrived......

"Quick, fire to help attack, be careful not to accidentally injure the shadow ghosts and pyridoxes!" Zhang Yang hurriedly changed the order.

The people on the defensive line who were ready to retreat, as soon as they saw that the situation had stabilized, also hurriedly returned to their respective positions and started casting spells again.

"Chirp!"

For a while, the scene was full of artillery fire again, and the sludge monster and the six-eyed lizard were suppressed by intensive firepower, but the fleur-tailed finch with the ability to fly took off as soon as possible, avoiding the fire bombardment, and at the same time circled in mid-air, diving straight towards the two figures on the top of the tall building.

"Be careful!" Zhang Yang and others are instinctive reminders.

As a result, seeing that the two people above did not dodge, and in the face of the giant sparrow that swooped in, the forest spirit suddenly took out a scepter and raised it high.

"Return, O lost bird, to the divine light!"

With a chant from the elf, the tip of the scepter suddenly released a soft glow.

The original murderous iris that rushed to the sky, after being reflected by the light, suddenly hovered in the sky, and then took the initiative to land on the top of the building, instead of attacking, but quietly crawling beside the elf.

"Wow-"

There was an exclamation below, and then everyone watched as the female elf stretched out her hand and stroked the fluff of a bird beside her, which was twice as big as her whole person, and the iris not only did not resist, but even closed her eyes comfortably, as if enjoying it.

Countless people who watched this scene almost dropped their jaws in shock: This is a two-star divine beast, and it was actually tamed in an instant by the girl who raised her hand like this? Is this a miracle?

After about ten minutes of light, the elf above put away the scepter.

At this time, the iris next to her opened her eyes and looked at the direction in which the scepter disappeared with some nostalgia, but instead of attacking the elf to snatch the scepter, she lowered her head and rubbed against her, making a gesture of submission and flattery.

Now everyone is completely convinced that the iris is really tamed!

Then, everyone saw that the elf and the iris communicated for a few seconds, and then pointed downward, and the iris suddenly chirped, spread its wings and flew up, rushing towards the battle below, helping the shadow ghost and the pyridine to start attacking the other two creatures.

With the help of the three giant beasts, coupled with the suppression of everyone's firepower, the two two-star creatures fell faster than ever, and just over ten minutes later, the sludge monster and the lizard were breathing one after another.

Soon a special trophy collection unit entered the battlefield and collected the corpses and drops of the two behemoths.

This is also one of the decisions of the joint statement of the countries: in this disaster, all the spoils of war must be registered and collected together, and then each person will be rewarded according to his contribution to the disaster, so as to ensure fairness.

"Chirp!"

At the end of the battle, both the iris and the pyridine flew back to the female elf for the first time, hovering behind her, like two bodyguards.

"Dream dreams!" At this time, the little girl also screamed and opened the box in her hand again.

The shadow ghost below suddenly jumped up, plunged into the box, and disappeared.

"Who are you?" Seeing that the two of them packed up their things and were about to leave, Zhang Yang hurriedly spoke.

"The Lord of Eternal Night City, Qing Ya Shuxiang, is responsible for replacing the ghost captain and guarding the safety of the black hole around V City."

The elf reported the name, and there was an immediate exclamation below.

It's actually the Lord of Eternal Night!

Among the eleven city lords, most of them are famous people in the world, but there are a few of them, and their fame is relatively not so prominent, such as the city lord of eternal night, who can be said to be the one with the weakest sense of presence among the city lords, and many people can't even remember her ID.

It was only now, after witnessing the miracles of the Eternal Night City Lord, that everyone realized that even the weakest City Lord was a figure far beyond their imagination!

Besides, the Eternal Night City Lords are so powerful, not to mention the other City Lords!

The thought of having so many strong top players in the human race to support them suddenly swept away the original frustration and despair of the people below, and they became full of confidence!

After the female elf above finished speaking, she left the scene directly with the little girl and quickly disappeared.

"Lao Zhang?"

Liu Chen noticed that Zhang Yang was still staring blankly at the top of the building, which was already empty.

"It's weird......" Zhang Yang came back to his senses and glanced at Liu Chen, but subconsciously frowned.

"What's wrong?" Liu Chen asked.

"I don't know why, I always feel that the two people just now seem to have ......seen them somewhere," Zhang Yang touched his chin and thought, but it was difficult to remember more details for a while.

……

The other side.

After the elf and the girl left the scene, they quickly stopped in a deserted location.

Xiaoya's face turned red and she spoke into the walkie-talkie: "Sister Xue, does that line really have to be shouted?" I feel so ashamed......"

"Where is the shame, it's obviously cool!" The little girl next to her took off her mask and looked at Xiaoya puzzled.

"Humanity is in desperate need of hope and heroes, and your abilities and effects are perfect for that." On the walkie-talkie, Lin Xue's voice came.

"But ......" Xiaoya still blushed, and the thought of constantly shouting that line in front of the public made her eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"The black hole in V City is nominally governed by Captain Ghost, and this inspiring role should also be played by Mu You, but now that he is gone, we can only do it for us." Lin Xue's voice.

"Well, I'...... Try your best to ......" mentioned Mu You, Xiaoya finally compromised and brainwashed herself in her mind: this is also one of her jobs as an employee.

"What were the results of the test? At most, can it only domesticate 2-star creatures? Lin Xue's voice continued to be heard in the communicator.

"Yes, I can't fully domesticate creatures above three stars, at most I just let them not attack me later, but once the light stops, they will leave immediately." Xiaoya nodded.

"Moreover, I can feel that there can only be two domesticated beasts of the two stars at most, otherwise they will fight each other to the death because of the competition for favor, until there are only two left." Xiaoya said.

"It seems that the ceiling of domestication is not high enough......"

In the study room of the pet shop, Lin Xue typed down a piece of information on the computer in front of him, and then muttered: "According to the persuasion effect of your evolution scepter on the creatures of the astral spirit realm, after your own star level is increased in the future, you may be able to exert the upper limit of the evolution scepter, thereby increasing the number and star rating of domestication." ”

"Where's the next reinforcement?" The voice of a little girl came from the communicator.

"The next location, in S City, I'll send you the location......"

Lin Xue quickly intercepted the distress message she received at hand and sent it to the two of them.

After she made public the information about the God-devouring beast yesterday, the major powers of the world were finally forcibly glued together under strong external pressure.

At noon on the same day, Lin Xue was pulled into a forum group called the 'Global Self-Help Alliance', which included the presidents of 54 first-class organizations around the world, as well as representatives of various countries, etc., and had a short but efficient meeting.

In the end, it was decided that the world would elect nine representatives with sufficient local prestige to be the overall leaders of the nine black hole defense affairs.

Among them, Captain Ghost is identified as the person in charge of the number A black hole, that is, the black hole in V City. Of course, because Mu You is not here now, the actual execution power is in the hands of the Ice Emperor's Bluebeard and Lin Xue.

The remaining black holes in the southern seas of the country are managed by Shadowless and Shenfeng.

The black holes in other regions are also guarded by the corresponding Sky City Lords in their respective regions, and when it comes to things like fame and appeal, there is no one more suitable than the Sky City Lords now.

As for the only two black holes located in the ocean, after some heated discussions, one of them finally decided to be the person in charge of Jiuyou.

It's no wonder, after all, the overall strength of the Celestial Empire really stands out in the world, and there are many domestic masters, even Sky City directly occupies as much as half, and at this time it should also bear more responsibility.

Jiuyou didn't have much objection to this, after all, this kind of thing is both a challenge and an opportunity, and after some discussion, he took over this task on behalf of the dragon group.

What really caused controversy was the last black hole, because the location was located in the depths of the ocean, the environment was the most sinister, and the position was the worst.

In the end, it was the Son of Heaven who took the initiative to stand up and take over this task on behalf of the divine authority of the monarch.

Of course, as compensation, each country must arrange enough manpower to go to the black holes in the two oceans and accept the dispatch orders of the Nine Shadows and the Son of Heaven during the duration of the disaster.

"In this way, the situation has almost stabilized......"

Lin Xue looked at the 'global real-time monster number map' displayed on the computer in front of him, and the vicinity of the nine black holes had gradually become sparse from the originally dense red blocks, which meant that the number of monsters in the world was gradually declining from the peak.

"It's not enough ......, though"

Lin Xue shook her head, the so-called stability is only relative to the current situation.

The premise of all this is that it can't be discovered by any giant, otherwise, the delicate balance that is now maintained with great difficulty will definitely be broken in an instant!

Fortunately, so far, there is no sign of any giants in the vicinity of the nine black holes.

However, it is extremely difficult to keep this situation going for more than five days.

According to the analysis of special modeling data engineers before, according to the density and activity trajectory of the giants in the giant world that have been detected so far, the probability that there are no giants passing through the nine black hole regions within a week is only 9.22%!

In other words, it is almost inevitable that they will be discovered by giants in the next few days!

So, instead of praying for the 10% chance event, it's better to plan ahead and think about how they should respond if a giant does land.

"Flocculous organisms...... Parasitism...... Divinity...... Humanoid intelligent creatures...... Time of contagion...... Propagation mode ......"

Lin Xue looked at the messy information recorded on the paper in front of her, and rubbed her temples with a little headache.

In the case of this parasitic organism, just like an infectious disease, unless there is an almost unsolvable transmission route such as an airborne infection, there should always be a channel that can be cut off in the process of infection.

Unfortunately, she knew too little about this creature now, and the few words left by Fuya's ancestors that day were not enough to draw more refined conclusions......

"Floccy creatures ......" At this time, Lin Xue suddenly heard Vivian muttering next to her.

Turning her perspective, Vivien was curled up at the table, resting at the table, but the crow's eyes were fixed on what she had written on the paper, with a pensive look.

Lin Xue's heart moved: "Teacher, have you ever heard of the God Devouring Beast?" ”

Vivian shook her head when she heard this: "When I was born, the era of the Little Calamity has long ended, and in the wizarding association, it is also a topic that is strictly forbidden to be mentioned, I don't know much about it, and I have never heard of the name of the God Devouring Beast. But ......"

"But?"

Vivien glanced at her: "You should know that when I was a child, I was also a member of the Wizards Association, and the three elders of the Wizards Association, black, white and gray, were all nominally my mentors at that time. ”

"Hmm." Lin Xue nodded, she heard Mu You talk about this, Vivian mentioned this at this time, obviously the next thing is related to the Wizards Association.

"As far back as I can remember, the Man in Black was a gloomy and irascible fellow, always a loner, and for a long time, he studied something behind closed doors, and often quarreled with the other two elders about it."

"I had no interest in their affairs, but one day, as a young man, I strayed into the study of the man in black, and on his desk, I saw a blurry picture of a hand-drawn cotton wool-like creature......"

"However, before I could see it clearly, the man in black returned, and in a very panicked manner, he threw me out, and scolded me, and warned me not to approach his place again......

After hearing this, Lin Xue's eyes widened subconsciously: "What do you mean?" The Man in Black may have studied the Devourer for a long time? ”

"Because I had never seen that creature, I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and the man in black seemed to have changed his mind and never studied it privately, so I gradually forgot about it...... Until now, this description of yours reminds me of that picture......"

Vivien nodded: "If the black-clothed man was studying the God Devouring Beast at that time, then many contradictions between the elders seem to be able to be explained!" ”
